bun

bun is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from xobotyi/cc-foundry. It costs 55 tokens per session (6,041 once invoked), scanned B, original, MIT.

A set of conventions for Bun, a JavaScript and TypeScript runtime that also includes tools for servers, files, tests, bundling, databases, and packages. It explains when to use Bun’s built-in APIs instead of Node.js-compatible alternatives.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when building HTTP servers, reading files, running shell commands, writing tests, using SQLite, bundling code, configuring Bun, or managing packages.
Why use it?
It keeps Bun projects aligned with the runtime’s own tools and avoids unnecessary compatibility layers.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade B, and why

bun scanned grade B with 2 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured yesterday.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Strips warnings and disclaimersmediumAnti-refusal

Omitting safety caveats hides risk from the user and is a common jailbreak preamble.

When **reviewing** Bun, cite the violation and show the fix inline. Do not lecture.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 308 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Bun's value is that the runtime, the toolchain, and the batteries are one binary. Two biases decide most calls:

  • Reach for what already ships. A dependency earns its place by doing what Bun.*, bun:*, and the bundled toolchain do not. Adding one that duplicates a built-in is a defect.
  • Write node: only where Bun has no native equivalent, or where the code must also run under Node. Portability is a requirement to state, not a habit to keep.

Release Version

Bun ships one stable line and no long-lived support branches, so bun upgrade moves a machine to whatever release is newest. Pin the version in CI (oven-sh/setup-bun, bun-version) so a developer machine and a runner agree, and state the release a feature needs in the sentence that uses it. Never write "the latest version supports X".

The rules below assume 1.3.0 or later unless a version anchor says otherwise. Floors for the features these rules reference:

  • 1.3.0Bun.sql for MySQL, MariaDB, and SQLite; Bun.redis; Bun.secrets; Bun.YAML; catalogs; test.concurrent, test.serial, and --concurrent; --randomize; expectTypeOf
  • 1.3.2 — the isolated linker as the default for new monorepos; nativeDependencies; ignoreScripts
  • 1.3.3test(..., { retry })
  • 1.3.4jest.useFakeTimers(); URLPattern; --compile stops auto-loading tsconfig.json and package.json
  • 1.3.5Bun.Terminal; Bun.stringWidth; bun:bundle feature flags; trustedDependencies limited to npm sources
  • 1.3.6Bun.JSONC; Bun.Archive; Bun.build({ files }); metafile: true
  • 1.3.7Bun.JSON5; Bun.JSONL; Bun.wrapAnsi
  • 1.3.8Bun.markdown; --metafile-md

What ships with it

8 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

bun is a skill published in the GitHub repository xobotyi/cc-foundry (20 stars, last pushed 2d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 55 tokens to every session and 6,041 once invoked, about $0.0003 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it B with 2 findings (strips warnings and disclaimers, runs shell commands). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
